“…Although insight is needed for interviewing and interpretation, it can also limit the ability to identify new perspectives and interpretations. I believe that my clinical experience as a physiotherapist and my knowledge of disease, illness, and recovery from medical (29,30) and sociological perspectives (31,32) enhanced my reflexivity during the research process. Identifying the different levels of illness deepened my understanding of these conditions.…”

“…Recent studies demonstrate the beneficial effects of exercise in SLE patients in terms of improving fatigue, physical function, aerobic fitness, and quality of life [22][23][24][25]. Aerobic exercises performed on a treadmill do not aggravate disease activity at any time during an exercise period and may provide some benefits on fatigue Openly accessible at http://www.scirp.org/journal/HEALTH/ and physical function in SLE patients with low disease activity [25].…”

This study aimed to characterize energy expenditure patterns using the tri-axial accelerometer and to identify the association of energy expenditure with clinical parameters in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Estimates of energy expenditures represented by total activity calorie (TA), physical activity calorie (PA), total activity calorie per body weight (TABW), and physical activity calorie per body weight (PABW) of 49 female SLE patients were assessed using the RT3 tri-axial accelerometer (StayHealthy, Monrovia, CA) in a seven-day period. SLE patients in the highest body mass index (BMI) tertile showed significantly lower values of TABW compared to those in the lowest tertile, while SLE patients in the lowest TABW tertile showed significantly higher body weight, waist circumference, BMI, SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI), dosage of prednisone, and blood pressure. There was a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome and SLE patients with metabolic syndrome showed significantly lower TABW. In addition, both TABW and PABW significantly but negatively correlated with SLEDAI. In conclusion, the RT3 accelerometer is suitable for evaluating total and physical activity-related energy expenditure in patients with SLE. TABW measured by the tri-axial accelerometer is inversely related with body weight status and disease activity in SLE patients. This suggests that estimates of energy expenditure by the tri-axial accelerometer may be applied in the management of SLE.

Chronical inflammatory diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, that basically affect joints and muscles cause disability, due to the side effects of medicines, comorbid cases, and joint destruction in years. Despite the recent improvements achieved in pharmacologic treatments, the functional losses due to rheumatic diseases and the decrease in quality of life and labor loss thereof can not be avoided. It is recommended that patients should do exercises and physical activities together with medical treatment in order to keep their functional situation. The purpose of the exercise in a rheumatic disease is to keep the joint capacity, obtain flexibility, keep and increase muscle strength, increase endurance, and increase aerobic capacity. Adapting to an exercise is an important issue in inflammatory diseases. Physician-patient cooperation is required to achieve patient adaptation. Inıtially, the exercises should be made under supervision. The exercise program should be customized for patients. Relatives should be incorporated in the program. In addition, suppressing the disease activity helps the patient adapt to the program. Before starting the program, the patient should be scored according to the scales suggested for disease activity parameters and exercise capacity, and the patient should be monitored at regular intervals. Suggestions for aerobic exercises against increasing cardiovascular risk and inflammation and exercises for muscle strength have been flourishing in recent years. In our country, one of the basic fields of physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians is inflammatory rheumatic diseases. The exercise protocols to be applied to inflammatory rheumatic diseases should be standardized, and the studies on them should be increased. Key Words: Rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, exercises ÖzetRomatoid artrit, ankilozan spondilit gibi temelde eklemleri ve kas iskelet sistemini tutan kronik inflamatuvar hastalıklar yıllar içinde gelişen eklem harabiyeti, komorbid durumlar ve ilaçların yan etkileri sonucunda sakatlığa neden olur. Son yıllarda farmakolojik tedavilerde ortaya çıkan gelişmelere rağmen hala romatizmal hastalıklara bağlı gelişen fonksiyonel kayıpların ve bunun sonucunda gelişen yaşam kalitesinde bozulma ve işgücü kaybının önüne geçilememektedir. Hastaların fonksiyonel durumlarını koruyabilmeleri için ilaç tedavisi ile birlikte fiziksel aktivite ve egzersiz yapmaları da önerilmektedir. Romatizmal hastalıklarda egzersizin amaçları eklem hareket açıklığını korumak, fleksibiliteyi sağlamak, kas kuvvetini korumak ve arttırmak; dayanıklılığı ve aerobik kapasiteyi arttırmaktır. Inflamatuvar hastalıklarda egzersize uyum önemli bir sorundur. Hasta uyumunu arttırmak için hekim hasta işbirliği gereklidir. Başlangıçta egzersizlerin gözlem altında yaptırılması, egzersiz programının hasta için bireyselleştirilmesi yakınlarının da bu programa dahil edilmesi gereklidir. Hastalık aktivitesinin baskılanması da, hastanın egzersize katılımını arttırır. Egzersiz progra...
